This would have been a near-excellent stay based on the room itself, however, we were met with problems immediately upon arrival. The utility bill had not been paid and the electricity was cut for our room. Figuring out how to resolve this took all the more effort as the host is not based in Bangkok, and had to delegate his hosting responsibilities to a friend who would be able communicate with us more easily. The host was kind enough to compensate us for a night's stay in a hotel - but after a 12 hour flight and traffic coming from the airport to the Airbnb, all we wanted was to arrive and relax in our own space which we were not able to do.
The apartment itself is spacious, clean, with basic amenities, some nice touches such as a hi-fi system and hairdryer. BTS station Ekkamai is about an 8-10min walk and there are some street food stalls close by.
It was unfortunate to have had to encounter the problem we faced as other aspects of the stay were good.
